” And the Angel said to her in reply, the Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the most high will overshadow you, therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the son of God”

” For today in the city of David a savior has been born for you who is Christ and Lord”

Within this society of today, do we truly have faith? I mean not just to have the faith to leave for work and return home later, but do we truly have the faith that everything happens for a reason, and yes we can over come whatever that may cross our paths, and when we do, then there will always be hope for us all, as we walk this journey of life. Belief…. this is something we do totally within our hearts, it is not just a word that is thrown out there, just to make like we understand something, when you truly believe 100% with your heart, there is no copy, or there is no faking the belief, because when you truly believe, not only will the faith be there, but there will always be hope as we move forward along our paths, of this journey through life.

True without faith there is no hope, also true that with no belief, there will be no faith or hope, which then leaves us all empty as we walk our paths of this journey through life. There are so many factors throughout this journey, true it can get overwhelming at times, we can lose our way and become lost, as then we are just wandering and not walking as we should. When we truly believe in something, we will always have the faith in that something, which then gives us great hope moving forward along our paths,

Jesus Christ is a great example of true belief, cause when we have complete faith within our hearts and souls for Jesus Christ, then not only can we feel his love within us, but he will help strengthen our faith in him, as he brings us great hope moving forward. True some may say we never see him, but when you truly believe in Jesus Christ, then we shall see the signs he leaves us, as we then discover the faith in not just ourselves, but the faith in Jesus Christ as well, which then leads us to great hope moving forward, which then helps this journey seem not as tough as we sometimes make it out to be. We may never see Jesus among us, but the signs he sends us to see, are all around us, which is why we always need to look deeply at what we see, because when we do not, this is when we will never see the signs, which then leads to zero belief, followed by no faith and the hope will never come to us throughout this journey.

This time of the year, the time of Christmas, is truly the most magical time and the most precious time as well. It is the birth of our savior Jesus Christ, it brings forth the belief in him, so we can truly feel his love within our hearts and souls, then with the belief the faith will then come, and not just in him, but in ourselves as well, while we truly see the signs that Jesus brings to each of us, then as our faith becomes stronger, then the hope we will find right in front of us, leading us into the path of righteousness. Even through the darkest of times, when we find that path of righteousness, the light of Jesus Christ will always light our way, throughout this journey of life. Jesus Christ is always there, he is always within us no matter what, it is us who lose the belief, which gives us no faith, to see no hope as we walk our paths of this journey through life.

” Merry Christmas to all and to all may you totally have the belief in Jesus Christ, which leads you to the faith in yourself and him, while the hope is in front of you”

” Jesus Christ is within us all, which is why we need to look deeply into what we see all the time throughout this journey”

” The three factors in life that we all need to be conscious of always, belief, faith, and hope”

The light of Jesus Christ is with us all throughout this journey of life

The light of Jesus Christ is within all our souls and beats within our hearts, Jesus is always there when we need, he will always heal us of our troubles. Jesus came and walked this journey here with us while sharing his love with us all, he sacrificed and died for each of us, so we can be free, not just as we walk our paths through this journey, but free of anything that we may encounter along this journey. This journey may not be perfect, we may not be perfect, but when we acknowledge Jesus Christ within us, this journey will be as close to perfect as perfect can be.

The darkness that encompasses us all today within this society, only comes to us as we have lost touch with the love of Jesus within our hearts, we have strayed away from the house of the Lord and put ourselves above Jesus Christ. The result of all this crap around us today, is a direct result of the fact that we all have lost the feeling of the love of Jesus within our hearts and souls. Our hearts have become cold towards each other as we only think of ourselves and put ourselves above one another, this is not what Jesus taught us when he walked this journey here with us, The problem of this society lies within each us and the solution is also within us, if only we could truly feel the love of Jesus within our hearts and souls. Within this fast paced society, where we want everything now and become impatient, most do not visit the house of God anymore, which the excuse ” I am too busy”, is the excuse of the day, instead of making a weekly trip and praying to Jesus, so we can heal ourselves of our troubles, when we do not heal properly, now we suppress and bury our troubles and try to move forward, but when we suppress we are only delaying til a later time, just we do not realize it at the time. Faith is a key component in our lives, not just faith in ourselves, but having the complete faith in Jesus Christ, as we walk our paths of this journey through life. When we lose the faith and have no confidence in ourselves, it is Jesus that helps us find it, so we than can have hope moving forward, as when there is faith there will always be hope.

We may walk many paths through this journey, but there is only one journey in our lives as we all have the same beginning and the same ending. The paths may change as other variables may change in our lives, these variables will come to us in many different ways, with some bringing much pain and hurt, there are many of us feeling the pain and hurt, and we all deal with it in our own way, we never talk to anybody of what ails us, because we don’t want to admit to any weakness, but as they say talk is cheap, on the contrary, talk will make us all rich, as it heals us within our souls, so we can keep moving forward better and stronger. For the most part, the pain and hurt will keep us from being true to ourselves as well as each other, it will have us hide within and become someone for who we truly are not, there are many today who are hurting, but we will never know, as they keep to themselves in this world of fast pace.

This journey may have many variables, but when we keep the variables to a minimum, this journey will then reward us with a journey well walked, Throughout this journey, Jesus is always within us no matter of what path we may walk, we just need to acknowledge him, so he than can help us heal from all our troubles. Jesus can’t help us unless we acknowledge him and when we distent ourselves from him, that is when our confidence goes away and the troubles seem to get bigger then they really are, which then the light turns to darkness and we become cold to everything around us.

” The light turns to darkness, then with faith and hope the darkness will then go back to the bright lights, that light up our paths moving forward”

” Talk is never cheap as true talk will help us become even richer then any amount of money will bring us to”

What a difference a day makes

” Today we work on now, as yesterday is in the past, tomorrow may never come, as we should never live for tomorrow to escape yesterday, so just simply live in the present as each day comes”

One day may bring calm and clear skies, as the next day will bring clouds, a storm, with some rough water, everyday may never be a given, but what is a given, is the way we walk our paths, through this journey of life. No matter on how much the deck may get stacked against us from time to time, there is nothing we can not do throughout this journey, As the days shift from tomorrow to yesterday, and as time goes by like the wind going through the leaves on a tree, when we walk our paths correctly and within the present, this journey will always be, a journey of fulfillment and enrichment, as we strive to be better and stronger moving forward.

There will be many things that cross our paths, these things will bring much chaos and ugliness, that will bring to us real pain and hurt, just like the change in the weather and the sights within Mother Nature, change is one of those things that comes along our paths and many times at that, change is that thing that unless we learn to adapt to it, it will further the chaos and the ugliness, change will have us live within the yesterday’s and never look forward to any of the tomorrow’s, then as it clouds our judgments within our minds, never have us live within the present that today brings.

Yesterday is the past, tomorrow is never promised, but today is what we can control now, no matter what we may be going through along our paths, when we stay strong and have complete faith in who we truly are, there is nothing we can not do, there is nothing that will come across our path that will bring us down, when we keep the faith in ourselves as well as Jesus Christ, and when we adapt to change, this journey we walk, will always be as beautiful as the beauty of Mother Nature.

The quiet seclusion of being one with mother nature will, help us heal ourselves from our troubles, especially when that quietness is along the shoreline of a rocky beach, with the sounds of nature calming our minds and clearing away the clouds within, so we can see clearly moving forward within the future. The wind passing through the tree’s and whistling into our ears, kind of like the sound of music from a jukebox, the loons swimming in the lake and chatting with their peers, an Eagle soaring through the wild blue yonder, with the greatest of ease, maybe even a moose coming out of the woods to the water for it’s daily splash, this is how we truly relax and heal ourselves from all that pains us so. Just as change comes to us, and how we change over time, so does all within mother nature change, which is why we need to adapt to all change, so we can walk our paths through this journey of life, in the peace and happiness that Jesus Christ brought to us within his journey here with us, we just have to let go of the yesterdays, do not expect any of the tomorrows, and just live within the present, as we become better and stronger moving forward.

” We should only look back to heal ourselves of our troubles. then we can see further of what is in front of us”

” The past will always be the past, as the future will always be something that hasn’t happened yet, while the present is the one thing that we can control now”

Rest for the Weary

” Come to me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest ‘

Matthew 11:28

Within this fast paced society of today, that is driven by greed and self righteousness, we do become very weary daily, how do you rest or re-charge your body? For some maybe load up on coffee for plenty of caffeine, maybe a mid day power nap? Or maybe even a weekend away? But these things are simply a temporary fix that passes quickly and the weariness returns, as the faith in Jesus Christ is what gives us the true rest deep within our souls, we just need to come to him, so we than can get the true rest our body needs.

With our daily routines comes frustration and chaos within the world around us as well, When we don’t get what we want, we become frustrated, when our jobs push us to our brink, we then become very weary which brings a whole host of chaos to our lives, when we become so tired from the stress, the chaos and the work from the push, we then will enter into burnout and if we do not handle the burnout correctly, we then will become bitter, have a wide variety of health problems, which then brings us much pain and hurt. Within the fast paced society we forget to truly heal ourselves in mind, body and soul, because we get so caught up in the chaos and our minds get lost within the clouds of our judgments, that we forget to take the time for ourselves, to regain the faith in ourselves and Jesus Christ. When we heal properly and when we get the proper rest we need, then not only can we walk freely of our paths on this journey of life, but we can also walk together with each other, without bringing hatred, chaos or ugliness to all that is around us.

We all will walk our own paths but the journey is the same, throughout this journey there will be many events that will tesgt us, there will be many who may cross our paths that will bring us much pain and hurt, as well as many that will come to us to help us when we need help the most, the problem then becomes we ourselves and when we do not be truthful to ourselves, how then can we be truthful with each other? The bigger picture of this is, not being truthful with ourselves, we then can never be truthful with Jesus Christ, which then becomes the number one reason why, we stop going within the house of God, to not just pray, but to hide deep within ourselves and not acknowledge of who we truly are. When we all come together in unity while being truthful of ourselves, with the faith of ourselves and Jesus Christ, then the love within our hearts will shine at it’s brightest, as all the hatred and ugliness disappears from all around us.

Rest is key for us all and not just resting from the work we put in from our jobs, but the rest that will help us heal from all our troubles, the rest that gives us spiritual healing deep within our soul. Getting out deep within Mother Nature and within her peace and serenity, will help us get the true rest we need, so we can heal within our mind, body and soul, from all that troubles us, so we than can move forward better and stronger. Some may want to vacation in an exotic place, with many others around and become stressed as they try to fit in everything in a short period of time, but thats not true rest, as it does nothing but add to the already tension within us. Step outside, step out deep within the woods of nature, listen to the peace and the sounds of nature, the birds singing their songs, the wind passing through the leaves of the tree, the water slapping against the shoreline, even a woodpecker pecking away at the tree. When you get out within Mother Nature and totally relax, you can feel the stress melt away from your body, kind of like a heavy weight being lifted off of your shoulders, spend a week out there and now you will recieve the proper healing within your mind, body and soul, plus you will also will trust yourself and while this takes place, learn to trust in Jesus Christ once again, as he led you to this special place, so you can truly heal as he wants you to. This is the biggest problem in this fast paced society, we don’t trust as we once did for whatever reason? We then hide deep within ourselves as we think we are protecting ourselves from any or further harm, but as the clouds then over come our judgments, we lose sight of who we truly are as we keep the foot on the gas and speed up further the pace throughout this journey, what do not realize is that while we bury deeper of who we truly are, our trust of each other gets buried as well. So as we move forward throughout this journey, we then hurt deeply each other and never show any love or empathy of each other. All this is on us the people of this society and all this can change if only we the people change our ways moving forward, as we walk our paths through this journey of life.

” Rest for the weary isn’t just falling asleep, it’s the healing of the mind, body and soul”

” The power of mother nature can change everything within it, just simply trust in her and the healing will begin”

Faith in the journey, will give you hope moving forward.

” He said the blessing, broke the loaves, and gave them to the disciples, who in turn gave them to the crowds. They all ate and were satisfied”.

Mt 14:19c-20

It has been said that…… ” when life gives you lemons make lemonade”, well too many lemons and you will pucker in distaste, too much sugar and now you get a sweet tooth, but when all is mixed correctly, now you can drink and enjoy. This journey through life is kind of like the lemonade, true life will throw you many curve balls, life will have it’s ugliness and bumps that will leave scars and bruises, but when you walk it correctly the journey will have many paths for you to be within peace and happiness always.

Jesus Christ came to us and walked this journey here with us, he taught us many things as he shared the love in his heart with each of us, He sacrificed himself, was beaten and died on the cross for each of us, as his love for every one of us never died, his love lives within all our hearts always and forever. Jesus Christ our Savior walked this journey and lead us from temptation, to the light of the path of righteousness, he showed us that when we walk this journey correctly, we to can have eternal life as he did, even after he died at the cross for each and every one of us. Tjhe love of Jesus Christ will never die, it will always be there for us, we just have to keep complete faith in him as well as ourselves, so we can have the hope moving forward along this journey of life.

We of this society also walk a path through this journey of life, but unfortunatly somewhere along the journey we lost our way into the house of God, we become afraid to walk through the doors of the house and because of that and over time, our hearts have become cold and the warmth of Jesus’s love has been buried deep within our souls. Yes the love is still there and will never leave us, we just have to acknowledge it and it will come back to us and welcome us with open arms. This society and because we have strayed away from Jesus , has brought us deeply into the darkness of Satan, with much ugliness and hatred all around, has shown us that, when we give into temptation, we can become overwhelmed and suffer pain so deep, that the hurt will bury the love deeper, just so we can try to move forward along our paths, but as we walk our paths the pain is always there unless we address it correctly, so it can leave us healthy and strong, as our hearts then get refilled with the warmth of Jesus Christ.

We the people with our actions are all a fault for not visiting the house of God and until we accept our own accountability for that, the hatred and the ugliness will never leave us and we may truly never feel the warmth of the love of Jesus within our hearts, as our paths of this journey becomes more bumpy with more chances of bruising us even deeper, will keep us from the peace and happiness and as the light within the path of righteousness stays dark, keeping us deep with the darkness of Satan, and within his power and control that leads us into nothing but destruction. At the last supper of Jesus Christ with his disciples, he broke the bread saying, ” this is my body to be given up to you”, then passed the wine saying, ” this is my blood”, when you visit the house of God and accept the bread and wine within you, this is the love of Jesus that fills your heart and soul, so you then can spread this love with each other, so we all can walk our paths through this journey of life in peace and happiness always, with the love of Jesus within us we then can move forward out of the darkness and into the light of the path of righteousness as we saw it, when Jesus had showed it to us, then with the true faith in Jesus as well as ourselves, we then can have the hope to move forward in strength and peace always.

” The road may be dirt and the mountain before us may look tall, but with the love of Jesus within us nothing will keep us from being of truly who we are”

” Sometimes we have to get through the darkness in order to truly see the light”

40-day journey well worth any sacrifice

da9b9-lent_2013_40days

 

With yet another Lenten season upon us and as the 40-day journey has begun with us going to church and having the ashes placed on our foreheads, let us all sacrifice something within our lives much the same as Jesus did, showing our faith in the Lord and we haven’t forgotten what he did for us all when he walked his journey here with us.

Jesus also walked this 40-day journey and was confronted by many a temptation, with the biggest temptation coming from Satan himself. We like Jesus get tempted by the power of temptation many times through this journey but as Jesus kept the faith in his father as well as himself, showed to us all that even with the power of temptation bearing down on our souls, when we stay true to who we are when we keep the faith in ourselves as well as Jesus Christ, we to can overcome all temptation and no matter how hard we struggle, we can walk our paths through this journey of life, better and stronger and reach for the stars as there is no force strong enough to conquer us as we move forward, just as Jesus did throughout the 40-day journey.

The Lenten season is one of the most special times of the year, but if you have lost all faith in yourself and Jesus Christ, have become a non-believer in any kind of higher power,  then this time of year will have you wondering with no direction and susceptible to any kind of temptation that may come your way. Temptation is a very powerful force that will control everything in its path, yes it can suck you in but it will also spit you out just as fast and it really does not care for the condition it may leave you. We all will be tempted by each other as well. we see one with a lifestyle you dream of, then wonder why you can not have the same? We may try but then end up with much more issues then we can handle, when we just simply be who we truly are, sacrifice when we need to move forward better, so we then can have the strength to resist all temptation that may knock us down and keep us stepping backward instead of moving forward.

Temptation is quite simply Satan trying to take control of us all as well as everything else within this world, temptation at times will come with a sugar coating surrounded by whip cream and cherries, it will promise us the world but never deliver on its promise. When we stay true to who we are, resist all that the temptation may bring to us, never lose the faith in ourselves and Jesus Christ, then we can resist and conquer all that temptation may bring to us, so we may prosper and walk our paths of this journey through life, in the peace and happiness that God envisioned for us all. You can clearly see within this society of today, that there are so many that have given in to temptation, so many that have lost the faith in themselves as well as Jesus Christ and because of that we are all traveling in so many directions, that we all have lost our way and there is no GPS made that will bring us back in the right direction, only Jesus himself can do this, but as we have let Satan control us through the temptations, we do not even give Jesus a thought, let alone even having any faith at all.

So as we walk yet another 40-day journey through lent, let us walk it with a purpose, let us walk it with meaning, as we sacrifice as Jesus did, learn that when we resist the temptation that not all is lost and the world will not end, as with the total belief in ourselves and in Jesus Christ, we can get back to who we truly are, we can get back to walking our paths with confidence, so this journey through life will have a meaning once again, it will have a true direction without wandering in circles, through temptation we become stripped from being of who we truly are and lose sight of what this journey is really about. With the total belief in ourselves and Jesus Christ, we then can truly find that path of righteousness, which Jesus told us about as he walked this journey with us, but right now as we have become overwhelmed with the power of temptation, we are all walking in so many different directions, that we have lost the sight of true reality which will lead us nowhere and further away from, having any faith in ourselves or Jesus Christ.

That old saying of, ” keeping up with the Jones” is so far from the truth, but as we become tempted to do so, we find that what may be good for one, may not be good for another. This journey is full of many paths as well as many temptations, but the only way to walk this journey confidently is, to be truly of who we are and to have complete faith in Jesus Christ, as he showed us in his 40-day journey, just how much he loved us, by the true sacrifice he made for each one of us. It is not about forcing oneself and your beliefs on each other, as it is totally about loving one another, no matter of what may cross our paths and when we walk our paths correctly, then this journey through life will be that of peace and happiness for us all, so as we take stock in our lives in this Lenten season, let us all throw out what we do not need and sacrifice these things, so we then can move forward with what is important, as we then follow the lead of Jesus Christ, away from all temptation, to be better moving forward and as we show respect, dignity, and love toward one another always, throughout this journey of life.

 

” The season of lent is one of sacrifice, much like Jesus did while he showed his true love toward all”

 

” During the season of Lent, we should take stock in our lives sacrifice what we do not need and move forward better with only what we need”

 

” 40 days and 40 nights to get back to who we truly are and move forward better and stronger”

 

” Temptation is a strong force but we are stronger when we stay true to who we are”

 

 

 

 

Get to the “Heart” of the judgment

” You have heard that it was said to your Ancestors, you shall not kill and whoever kills will be liable to judgment. But I say to you, whoever is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment”

Mt 5:21-22a

 

With this quote from scripture and as we truly decipher the words, you can clearly see that each one of us are guilty of sin, so I think we all need to enter into the house of God, so we can ask for his forgiveness, so we can move forward within this journey through life, without looking back and dwelling in the troubles of our pasts, keeping us within the walls of purgatory within this life.

God created us all as equals true there are some differences, but these differences are what makes us unique to each other, now in this society, we simply do not look deep enough to see any uniqueness, we judge way to quickly and when it comes to getting to truly know one another……….. Let’s just say it may be easier to walk along the shore of the beach and watch the waves slap the shoreline alone with our own thoughts. This journey through life was meant for us all to coincide, not to be divided or bicker at each other with each turn.

The heart is front and center as the most vital of our organs, the heart can become overcome real easily, but if we treat it correctly it can also bring us much comfort and joy with feelings of warmth. The heart will see everything as all our other organs send it the signals of life, the love of Jesus is also within our hearts which brings us the warmth of life, so we can move forward with strength.

Today we take for granted so much that we do not even think about what is most important until it becomes too late, we will get caught up with neglecting what is good, only to try to fit in with what we think is normal? then we think that if we do not actually pull the trigger of the gun, then we did not commit the sin of the murder, but what we do not want to think about is, once that even has become a thought, now the signal has gone within our hearts, to which the sin has already been committed long before the trigger has been pulled and now we need to walk into the house of the Lord, so we can have God forgive us and then we can forgive ourselves and others.

“Bless me, Lord, for I have sinned”, you do not hear these words all too much anymore simply because, with a few that do not have the faith let alone believe, they will cry and say that they have been offended until another will make an amendment that will prohibit anyone from saying those words, are you kidding me? Have we stooped to this level today? I think we all should go back to the basics, go back to the beginning of Mankind, go back to a time that we couldn’t even communicate with anything around us and we had to figure it out, or we simply became just another statistic as we walked through this journey of life.

This journey may seem hard to some, but it is really quite simple and all you need to figure it out is simple Common Sense. Now other societies of the past left us with good and a lot of prosperity, but within this society and our actions, we will not leave the newest generation with the same prosperity that we received, instead, we will leave them on their own to figure out, with no base to start from and use as a guide, for their actions to take them into a journey of peace, instead of a journey full of great pain and hurt. The guide for us here in America is the Constitution, which is why we all have to read it in its entirety, each country has its own guidelines, but this is another way of us showing our uniqueness, now I get that we will want to interpret these guidelines very different, but if we do not follow our heart, then our judgments along this journey will be within the clouds throughout this journey, then the pain and the hurt, not to mention the walking of the journey with no common sense, will have us all be within the division and bickering back and forth without truly listening to anything that is around us.

 

” Don’t skip any beat as the heart is the life of all throughout this journey of life”

 

 

” The killing takes place in the mind’s eye before any action has been taken”

 

 

” The sin is made when you simply think of the action, not when you actually take the action”

 

 

 

Follow Jesus and be enlightened throughout this journey

” Come after me, and I will make you Fishers of men”

Mt: 4:19

 

 

 

We of this society would rather live in frustration for what we can not do than to truly follow and have complete faith in Jesus Christ, for he will truly lead us and never lead us astray anywhere on our paths of this journey. We of this society think that success comes from stepping on another’s shine, but true success comes from true faith in Jesus Christ to lead us to the path of righteousness, so we all can have hope moving forward with strength and be true of who we are.

Jesus Christ did not come here for himself, he came here for you and me to prosper on this journey, but yet we all within this society have gone the complete opposite of what he taught us as he walked his journey. We of this society think that we can do better at everything, that we do not need help with anything, we also think we are smarter than all those who have walked before us? We are all so confused within this society that we have lost the faith of everything that is good, which now leaves us with no hope moving forward through all the hatred around us.

This world today is so full of ugliness and hatred only because we have lost all faith in not just ourselves, but lost all faith in Jesus Christ our savior. This quote today is more than just what you may think of as being a Fishermen when you become a fisher of men, you have opened your heart and soul to Jesus Christ, you truly believe with true faith that Jesus is good and will never lead you astray, so now as you follow Jesus with your heart, you can then lead others to the same promise land, that Jesus has led you to as well. No matter how troubled you think you are, with the true faith and belief in Jesus Christ, you will always have the hope for a better and smoother path, as you walk through this journey of life.

No matter where you go throughout this planet, you can see all the corruption, you can see all the ugliness and hate, this is just how sad this society truly is today, it only goes to show just how many have lost all faith in themselves as well as Jesus Christ, which now leaves us with no hope moving forward and for those who still have the true faith, makes it that much harder for them to walk forward with confidence throughout this journey. Our so-called leaders can not truly lead anymore, even some who wear the cloth has lost this faith and have become corrupt with great ugliness, when all around us have become engulfed in this corruption, ugliness, and hatred, then where do we turn? We turn to Jesus Christ and reach down deep within, to truly feel his love for each of us, his love is always deep within our hearts and souls, just that we need to have complete trust in him, so we then can have complete faith and the hope will follow us all, all we need to do is, not only reach down deep within, but totally acknowledge Jesus, so he then can help us all no matter how troubled you think you are.

We all may walk our own paths, but the journey we walk them in is all the same, we all start out the same, then our paths bring us to different locations as some may intersect at different times, then we all have the same ending to this journey, but the biggest part is the fact that the time in the middle is where we all go wrong, especially when we lose touch with everything around us, lose touch with ourselves and most of all, lose touch with Jesus Christ our Savior. When we truly acknowledge Jesus and love him as he loves us, then no matter what trouble that may come to you, then our faith will never leave us as we will all move forward with the hope, to walk this journey in peace and happiness we all so deserve.

 

” A fisherman will catch the fish for all to eat and not starve, as a fisher of men will gather all in the love of Jesus to move forward to be better and stronger”

 

” Out of frustration we may do things not truly of who we are, out of love we can truly be of who we are”

 

” Corruption, ugliness and hatred are signs from Satan, as love comes from Jesus to help us grow in a positive way”

 

 

 

Family Time

” Rise take the child and his mother and go to the land of Israel, for those who sought the child’s life are dead”

Mt 2:20

 

We all have family here on Earth true, but what is part of an even bigger picture is, we are all part of a Spiritual family that also helps shape us into the person we truly are. Jesus Christ came to us from God our Father and Mary our mother, Jesus walked his path of this journey with us to show us that, when we walk it correctly and when we walked it truly feeling the love within our hearts, then nothing will get in the way of we ourselves sharing that love with each other, with the hate we see today not even standing a chance against the true love of Jesus Christ and the true love within all our hearts and souls.

Family time is the precious time we spend with our families, to bond, to build that strong foundation, so we all can move forward with confidence no matter what is thrown at us within this broken society. Just as this table is empty in this picture, so is this precious family time that helped build who we truly are, as a kid growing up, I remember every Sunday being the ” family time”, gathering around the table and eating dinner together, truly chatting with each other, not just to help each other along our paths, but forming a strong bond and a strong foundation, one that can never be broken and even if it was to be cracked, we worked together to mend that crack and moved forward better and stronger. Within this broken society of today, the family time is stripped from us all, we let the fast pace dictate not just our lives, but of who we are as now we have become like a Robot instead of being an actual person, who walks a path through this journey of life.

Now I get the fact that even within a family we go through some tough times for many different reasons, we become drawn apart from each other, we fight and argue with each other, we also may not see eye to eye with each other and have our disagreements, but at the end of the day we are still drawn toward each other, as the magnet within us keeps pulling us together, this is the power of the Holy Spirit, this is the love of Jesus Christ deep within all our hearts and souls, so no matter of all the hatred and ugliness outside of the family, it will never last within the family as it is the bond and the foundation of family, that truly keeps us all strong as we walk this journey, regardless whether or not we want to recognize or accept what family is, truly what family is, a bond and a foundation built with hard work and love of each other, so we then can grow within a society and show the same love with a much broader and wider group, so we all can walk our paths through this journey of life, in the peace and happiness we all so deserve.

 

” At least one day a week our families would gather around the table to further strengthen our bond and the foundation of our true family”

 

” When we do not take the time for our family time and gather around the table, eventually over time the bond and the foundation becomes cracked with no fix in-sight”

 

” Just as we have our family here on Earth, we are also part of an even bigger family within the spiritual world, which helps us grow and share our true love with each other”

 

” At least one day a week dinner time would be a lot more than just eating food, it would be a bonding time to help strengthen our family foundation further”

” I am the light of the world, he who follows Me shall not walk in darkness”

John 8:12

 

” Jesus Christ came to us and was born at night, but it was a perfect time as it showed that with faith, even in the darkness the light of the world would shine at it’s brightest”

Bowlingchef

 

This month is the most special time of the year, true some will struggle very deeply this time of year, but when we have total faith in Jesus Christ and with a total understanding of what Jesus meant to us, the struggle will never last, simply because with huge faith in Jesus then through any darkness he will help us see the light of hope, to heal us from our iniquities, so we can move forward in the peace and joy that this special time of year will bring.

With each one of us, this time of year can and will bring a wide range of emotions, these emotions will do one of two things, it will have us shut down from all that is around us, or it will have us act in ways that we normally would not, our emotions are at their most fragile when our foundation has become cracked for whatever reason, now as we keep Jesus Christ close to our hearts, then he will help us heal in the proper way, he will help us overcome all our sins, so we then can focus on staying true to who we are, so as we move forward on our paths of this journey, better and stronger with each step.

There is no booklet to this journey as well as no set way to walk through this journey, but when we let Jesus in to warm our hearts and souls, then we can truly be of who we are, what a beautiful difference throughout this journey of life for each and every one of us, as we keep Jesus close to us by always having faith in him, to keep alive the hope so we can move forward in strength and happiness always. Now there are some who have lost the faith in Jesus as they don’t believe in his existence, which would explain all the lost hope in this society, these people called Atheist may have lost all faith in Jesus, but what is more deeper is the fact that their emotions are worn on their sleeves instead of within their hearts and souls in the name of Jesus Christ. With how screwed up this current society is, it proves beyond a shadow of a doubt, that there are way too many that have lost faith in Jesus Christ, leaving this society with no hope moving forward.

Jesus Christ came to us and was born here on Earth at night, as the great north star lit the way for all to come view the new child of God. Jesus is the light that will guide us all from the darkness to the bright light of the path of righteousness and all we need is the true faith in him, as the hope for a brighter future moving forward becomes great. This is the most special time of the season and one that with good faith, can and will heal us all from our struggles, not just for this month but for all eternity as we walk our paths through this journey of life.

 

” With good faith in Jesus Christ, there will always be hope for us all moving forward”

 

” The light of the world is Jesus Christ and with faith not only will it gives us hope, but this light will heal us of all our struggles and get out of the darkness”
